Go to Doctor Robert's webpage on this story and read down. You will find out what happened to the boy who wanted to kill himself and also read some other interesting commentaries.

This page shows in my opinion one of the doctor's strongest efforts at helping someone awaken who is lost in a dream using only one email question and one email answer. His critique of Pakistani Islam or of religion in general although it appears in his reply really isn't the focal point of his writing, and that is what makes his view so unusual and so special. He is really trying to help the one person who questioned him but in the course of doing that he makes a profound critique of the kind of cultural indoctrination which passes for child rearing in many if not most cultures. This is psychology speaking from strength and understanding. I am a fan.
